Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleStudy of Modified Oral Minimal Model using n-Order Decay Rate of Plasma Insulin for the Oral Glucose Tolerance Test in Subjects with Normal, Impaired and Diabetic Glucose ToleranceAgus Kartono, Egha Sabila Putri, Ardian Arif Setiawan et al.In this present study, the modified Oral Minimal Model (OMM), with secretion of insulin from pancreas was assumed that the insulin decay rate was not always a first-orderly process in the Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT), had been developed to study Normal Glucose Tolerance (NGT), Impaired Glucose Tolerance (IGT or pre-diabetes) and type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) subjects. The modified … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 4 · 25 Apr 2017 · 7,981 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAnalysis of the Utility of MPT64, Drug Susceptibility Testing and Tuberculosis/Nontuberculous Mycobacteria Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction for Tuberculosis Diagnosis and Efficiency Compared with Traditional CultureHo Keun Choi, Ga Yeon Kim, Tae Soung Kim, Jae Kyung KimDefining the molecular mechanisms underlying the dormant state of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) is essential for developing more effective treatments for tuberculosis (TB) infection. We investigated the positivity and resistance rates of TB tests on 6,174 samples referred to a single hospital. Of these, 342 cases (5.5%) were confirmed as positive by acid-fast bacilli staining, 243 cases (71.1%) were detected as … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 20, Issue 4 · 5 Dec 2024 · 4,211 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleParticle Size Determination in Rice Bran Testing with Various Levels of Rice Husks Using Ultrasonic WavesUrip Rosani, Iman Hernaman, Rahmat Hidayat, Darmawan HidayatThe principle of ultrasonic waves in detecting materials is based on their physical properties. The size of particles has an impact on various aspects of their composition and function. The limited information that reports the particle size of RH-contaminated RB samples tested using ultrasonic waves is the basis for this study. This study aims to determine the optimal sample particle … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 4 · 6 Nov 2024 · 4,360 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDefect Classification of Reinforced Concrete Structures with Nondestructive Tests Using Statistical and Machine Learning MethodsSajjad Sayyar-Roudsari, Armaghan Shalbaftabar, Farshid Damirchilo et al.In this study, twelve reinforced concrete beams were constructed, each with specified dimensions and initial compressive strength. The beams were divided into four groups: A control group without any defect, a void group featuring a centrally located void, a corrosion group and a debonding group. The impact echo test was used for nondestructive testing, gathering data on compressive and shear … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 3 · 11 Jun 2024 · 5,264 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleWarranty Cost Models using Accelerated Life Tests on Dagum DistributionEman A. El-Dessouky NassefWarranty one of the main factors which effect on the decision to purchase any product whether it is non repairable or repairable, therefore, in market the manufacturers can compete by using warranty service. The cost of warranty are wanted to predict which are mirrored on the price and profitability of products. To achieve this goal, the research is concerned with … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 3 Aug 2020 · 6,193 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTrend Analysis of Precipitation, Groundwater Level and Flow Rate Data by using Mann-Kendall and Sen's Slope Estimator Statistical Tests in the Petorca CommunerHéctor L. Venegas-Quiñones, Mark Thomasson, Pablo A. Garcia-ChevesichThis article analyses one of the most complex socio-environmental conflicts in Chile: The Petorca water crisis. Petorca has been experiencing a shortage of water for several years. The cause of these variations has not yet been completely analyzed and the problem has remained unchanged. This paper evaluates hydrology variables to identify, quantify and demonstrate the cause of water shortages in … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 6 · 10 Jan 2020 · 8,427 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTHE RATE FUNCTION OF S-MIXING PROCESS AND ITS APPLICATION IN EVALUATING EMPIRICAL LIKELIHOOD TESTSXing WangIn this study we show that the rate function of S-Mixing stationary process with part of the hypermixing condition is equivalent to the Kullback-Leibler distance. This finding can be used to extend the result of the optimality of empirical likelihood test in i.i.d setting to weakly depended case, so that the Asymptotic Relative Efficiency (ARE) of the empirical likelihood test … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 28 Oct 2013 · 6,618 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleNumerical Modeling of Periodic Pumping Tests in Wells Penetrating a Heterogeneous AquiferPeter A. Fokker, Joerg Renner, Francesca VergaThis study investigated how to utilize multiple frequency components of pressure data from periodic pulse tests to estimate the intra-well permeability and compressibility distribution and also the presence of heterogeneities in a real field case. Periodic well testing is a technique in which injection or production pulses of a fluid are applied to a well in a periodic fashion. One … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 13 Jan 2013 · 7,998 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleOne-Sided Multivariate Tests for High Dimensional DataSamruam ChongcharoenProblem statement: For a multivariate normal population with size smaller than dimension, n<p, the likelihood ratio tests of the null hypothesis that the mean vector was zero with a one-sided alternative were no longer valid because they involved with sample covariance matrix which was singular. Approach: The test statistics for one-sided multivariate hypotheses with n<p were proposed. Results: The simulation … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 20 Jun 2012 · 7,264 accessesView PDFCite
